OASIS MEMBER DISCOUNT FOR XML WORLD

[Carol Geyer <cgeyer7@home.com>]

OASIS Members,
OASIS is sponsoring the XML World conference in Boston next month.
As an OASIS member, you are eligible to receive a 10% discount off
registration for this exciting event.

XML World focuses on the business applications of XML within the
mainstream technology market.  This event will host a number of activities
that are central to working XML into the fabric of daily business: OASIS
will hold a meeting on XSLT Conformance, the Workflow Management Coalition
will convene its technical groups, and Tim Berners-Lee will set out the
foundation role that XML is expected to play in making a reality of
electronic commerce and the semantic web.

The choices available to people seeking to learn about XML are now
becoming more clear. There are events, on one hand, that focus their
attention on the specific details of the emerging specifications and how
these can be deployed within sometimes esoteric applications. On the other
hand, the are events that seek to bring together the entire community of
XML exponents, and to offer a broad survey of the different activities and
issues. In a market that is expanding as rapidly as XML, there is a role
for both of these types of events. There is also a role, a critical role,
to be played by a conference that focuses exclusively on XML Business
Applications where XML is making a tangible difference. XML World 2000 is
that conference.

Building on the outstanding success of last year's event, XML World will
this year offer an expanded program that delivers detailed and practical
information about how XML can be used in your applications and
organization. I am justifiably proud of the fact that XML World 2000 offers
a solid program from both the perspective of the developer and the
technology manager. I encourage you not only to attend and participate in
XML World but to ensure that your organization is well enough represented
to be able to extract its full value.
